Casa Canaria — Restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz

What a lovely find. A busy little cafe/restaurant with a good menu range from pizzas, burgers, sandwiches and tapas and more. It had a lovely friendly local feel about it even with the big wall mounted menu boards in 5 languages. They have seating inside and out under canopies on the edge of the square opposite the church. Unfortunately for us it rained very heavy and we did get a bit wet as edges of the canopies dripped and splashed. The staff were attentive, but did not rush you and the kitchen/bar area looked very clean, as were the toilets. We had the Tenerife pizza and it was delicious, unusual with banana on it, and thin crispy crust just how we like it. The coffee very good taste. Pizza (big enough to share), 2 beers and 2 coffees came to less than 15 euro. Good...

This was probably one of the worst food experiences I had in my life unfortunately. We ordered shrimps and the portion was so small that I could maybe define it as an appetizer. I even asked the waiter if the portion is big enough for 1 person and he confirmed. There were 8 or 10 shrimps, that were probably the smallest I've ever seen. The "soup" they were in was actually just tasteless oil with some dry peppers that also had no taste.

We decided to order a pizza so we can at least go to bed with full bellies, but the pizza was also a big disappointment. The dough in the middle was raw and the pizza looked like a really bad frozen microwave pizza from a store. I would not recommend. This is not a 4 star...

Despite the comments of others downgrading this cool little eatery I have to say I’ve visited here twice and on both occasions had good food and service.

The staff are friendly, the place is relaxed, the food is nice and very affordable for anyone.

If like me you are a celiac they are knowledgable about intolerances and even have gluten free beer.

A gluten free beer and a coffee costs about €3.75 So very good value when compared to home. While smoked cheese, wrinkled potatoes omelette (tortilla) with a coke and a beer came to €16.

Yes it’s not Michelin started, but it’s cheap, good food a stones throw from...
